"Been to Red Rocks 100 times, finally seen a bear," Amundson wrote. "And yes it's a bear. There was 2 actually. Awesome."

Fans seemed to keep their distance, and the bear kept going on its merry way.

Even Mother Nature can agree: there's nothing better than a Red Rocks concert on a Colorado summer night!
